“The old way of journeying was about a warrior and proving your worth. This way of working does not resemble that. Because with this way, you work with us and let yourself be guided. You will notice that there are fewer ego-obstacles this way.” – The Grandmothers via Sharon McErlane in “Our Love is Our Power”, around p. 341

This passage is about journeying in non-habitual realities (the spirit world of the shaman). In shamanic journeys, the person making the trip knows where they are in the spirit world. With the Grandmothers, they guide the person into the place they need to be. This applies also to “real” life. If we let the Grandmothers (or, if you prefer, the part of you that is always with the Grandmothers) guide us, there are fewer ego-obstacles and nothing to prove.

Today, every time you feel stress or confusion, stop and journey briefly to the Grandmothers. Where do they guide you?

Golden Eagle Feather

Golden eagle feathers are used in Native American ceremonies. The Grandmothers gave me the name "Golden Eagle Feather" before I knew anything about golden eagles. I'm growing into the name slowly. I offer my words here to anyone seeking love, rest and connection to the Divine.
